Ever since Pidite was launched in 2015, I have been interested in the line. The style of packaging instantly grabbed my attention, and then I decided to try a product or two from the line. It seems that some of you are interested in the line as well, and today I will be sharing my thoughts on Clear Smooth Powder.

I got a sample of Jill Stuart‘s Everlasting Silk Powder Foundation Flawless Perfection a while ago and I have been testing it. I also got the case for the foundation (Powder Foundation Compact EP) and there are photos of it towards the end of this post.

I rarely use liquid foundations as they tend not to suit my oily skin. However, I got curious about Primavista AngeLiquid Foundation UV (Long Keep) and I decided to try it mainly for research purposes.

Launched in 2008, OxygenetixOxygenating Foundation was originally formulated to be used after cosmetic surgeries and cosmetic procedures. It is claimed to provide a natural, complete, and breathable coverage. In a way, the original purpose of this product is similar to that of a B. B. cream. (The product is not claimed to be or marketed as one, and I will go back to this later on.)

I have been using Shiseido ZA‘s powder foundations for a long time, and I have been using ZA’s Skin Beauty Two-Way Foundation (launched in spring 2010) since 2011. In fall 2012, Perfect Fit Two-Way Foundation was launched and it replaced Skin Beauty Two-Way Foundation. I decided to try it out.

Last fall, Sisley released Skinleÿa Anti-Aging Lift Foundation, which promises to even out the complexion and restore freshness of the skin. It is available in nine shades, and today I am featuring 00 Light Linen, the lightest shade of the lineup.

After posting about the two new powder foundations from Shiseido ZA, I decided to try both in order to decide which one of them would be the successor to my ZA Two-Way Foundation. Now, after trying both, I present another Foundation Face-Off. (This time, it is sibling rivalry!)

Over the years, one of the questions that I have been asked the most by my readers is “Have you tried B. B. creams?”

Personally, B. B. creams don’t fit in with my daily skincare/makeup routine. Currently, when I don’t wear makeup, my daytime routine ends with Olay’s Complete Care Daily Sensitive UV Fluid SPF 15. When I do want coverage, I wear ZA’s Two-Way Foundation on top of the Olay moisturizer. Generally, I prefer pigmented products for face, eyes, and cheeks to be powder-based. (Powder foundations suit my sebaceous skin a lot more, and I find powder eyeshadows (especially those from Japanese lines) and blushers a lot easier to work with. Also, I very rarely wear primers.) Therefore, I haven’t been tempted to purchase a B. B. cream.

However, today, I am taking you through the basics of B. B. creams and I will be reviewing Garnier‘s Miracle Skin Perfector Daily All-in-One B. B. Cream.
